Maritime transport plays a pivotal role in global supply chains and is increasingly required to support decarbonisation objectives and broader sustainability transitions. While a wide range of sustainable measures has been proposed for shipping and port operations, existing research remains fragmented, limiting a comprehensive understanding of how these measures contribute to sustainable supply chain transformation. This study systematically reviews the development of sustainable measures in green maritime transport using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework and bibliometric analysis. The review synthesises the literature across the shipping and port sectors, examining various measures that support environmental performance, resource efficiency, and supply chain sustainability. The findings offer a structured roadmap for researchers, policymakers, and the industry seeking to advance maritime decarbonisation and sustainable supply chain development while identifying key research directions for future innovation and decision support.
The growing imperative for sustainability, shaped by environmental concerns and more stringent regulatory frameworks, has intensified the need to restructure modern logistics systems. The logistics sector is responsible for approximately 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions and remains among the most challenging indu...
Decarbonization of global shipping and maritime ports has become a strategic priority for achieving international climate targets. Although research has expanded rapidly, existing reviews predominantly examine technological, operational, or policy dimensions separately, providing limited understanding of how interactio...

: Vessels carrying goods in global trade produce approximately 3% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To reduce or even eliminate this contribution caused by ships, studies are being conducted on alternative fuels and new technologies to replace fossil fuels. The International Maritime Organization (IMO), which c...

International maritime environmental regulation is changing port sustainability from a predominantly local environmental-management task into a cross-organisational challenge involving vessels, energy systems, terminal operations, logistics customers, public authorities, and port-city communities. This article examines...
